With THE CURSE, I wanted to film in Morocco, a land of origins and mystery surrounding ghosts and spirits, to tell a story rarely seen and explore it through the lens of folkloric horror.”

— Filmmaker Abel Danan

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, June 2, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Freestyle Digital Media, the digital film distribution division of Byron Allen’s Allen Media Group, has just released the horror feature THE CURSE -- which is now available on North American digital HD internet, cable, DVD and satellite platforms starting on June 2, 2026.

THE CURSE tells the story of Yara, a young Moroccan girl who moves to Paris to study. Agoraphobic since childhood, she lives a cloistered existence, trapped within the walls of her apartment and the grip of her nightmares. Bedeviled by terrifying events that blend fragments of her past with monstrous visions, Yara’s reality begins to fracture. When a mysterious apparition appears one evening, it turns her life upside down, pushing her to the very brink of madness.
Directed by Abel Danan and written by Danan and Emma Lacoste, THE CURSE was produced by Jad Ben Ammar, Thomas Berthon, Jérémie Galan, Laurent Ghelfi, Matthias Jenny, David Layani, Grégory Ouaniche and Romain Vissol. Featured actors include: Lina El Arabi (‘Yara Ouazzani’), Ouidad Elma (‘Djeinaba’), Sairi Salma (‘Najiyah Jeune’), and Souad Labsy (‘Nayijah’s grandmother’).

"With THE CURSE, I wanted to film in Morocco, a land of origins and mystery surrounding ghosts and spirits, to tell a story rarely seen and explore it through the lens of folkloric horror,” said filmmaker Abel Danan. “I approached it with passion to speak about heritage, but also to captivate and frighten audiences with the significance of Moroccan witches. The idea is to leave a mark through rarely seen visuals and a culture that is not widely known, yet deeply fascinating."

Freestyle Digital Media negotiated a deal to acquire THE CURSE directly with the filmmakers.
